Abstract

The sexual abuse of children is receiving increased attention, and the counseling of adult survivors of a childhood incest experience continues to grow. This paper applies a conceptual framework representing women's experiences using the metaphor of voice to structure a group therapy process. The purpose of the group, formation of collaborative relationships among members and therapists, plus procedures and interventions, reveal the nature of the group process. Data from college women incest survivors illuminate the process of change, noting family messages, the presence of an inner and outer voice, and the integration of the two voices.
